Publication Access status: Metadata only , Dual-Pump Vibrational Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Scattering System Developed for Simultaneous Temperature and Relative Nitrogen–Water Vapor Concentration MeasurementsSimultaneous gas phase temperature and water vapor concentration measurement are important to understand reacting flows such as combustion or gas reforming processes. Here, coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) offers the possibility for non-intrusive measurements with a high temporal and spatial resolution. Therefore, this work demonstrates the simultaneous measurement of temperature and relative water vapor–nitrogen concentrations by using dual-pump vibrational coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (DPVCARS). A calibration procedure is developed for a temperature range of 473 K to 673 K and a water vapor concentration of 24% to 46% at ambient pressure. This setup is tested with 500 CARS single pulse spectra taken in a gas cell at a known temperature and concentration. Based on these results, information about precision and accuracy can be delivered.Source Type:Article4 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Access status: Metadata only , Emission Spectroscopy-Based Sensor System to Correlate the In-Cylinder Combustion Temperature of a Diesel Engine to NOx EmissionsDue to a rising importance of the reduction of pollutant, produced by conventional energy technologies, the knowledge of pollutant forming processes during a combustion is of great interest. In this study the in-cylinder temperature, of a near series diesel engine, is examined with a minimal invasive emission spectroscopy sensor. The soot, nearly a black body radiator, emits light, which is spectrally detected and evaluated with a modified function of Planck’s law. The results show a good correlation between the determined temperatures and the NOx concentration, measured in the exhaust gas of the engine, during a variety of engine operating points. A standard deviation between 25 K and 49 K was obtained for the in-cylinder temperature measurements.Source Type:Article3 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Access status: Metadata only , Experimental Determination of the Temperature‐Dependent Broadening Effect of Water Vapour on the S‐Branch Raman Linewidths of Nitrogen(2024); ; ABSTRACT This work reports the S‐branch Raman linewidths of N 2 broadened by H 2 O vapour at temperatures 870–1900 K determined using the picosecond time‐resolved pure rotational coherent anti‐Stokes Raman scattering (RCARS) approach. The coherent dephasing time constant of nitrogen in a binary mixture was determined from the time trace fitting of the RCARS signal. Raman linewidths of N 2 for four different binary mixture compositions up to 20% H 2 O were obtained for each temperature and the N 2 ‐H 2 O broadening coefficient was determined. The decay of nitrogen broadened by water vapour is faster than that of self‐broadened nitrogen for all temperatures leading to a higher Raman linewidth. Respectively, the S‐branch Raman linewidths of N 2 ‐H 2 O deviate significantly in magnitude and slope from the Q‐branch Raman linewidth calculated by the modified energy gap (MEG) law. Therefore, taking into account the broadening effect of water molecules in nitrogen has the potential to significantly improve thermometry and species concentration determination. The determined S‐branch Raman linewidths and broadening coefficient will therefore find application in combustion and reactive flow diagnostics.Source Type:ArticleDOI:10.1002/JRS.67424 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Access status: Metadata only , Two-color four-wave mixing contribution to an electrostrictive laser-induced grating signal in CO<sub>2</sub>–N<sub>2</sub> mixtures and gas diagnostics(2023); ; Multiparameter determination in the gas phase using the versatile laser-induced grating (LIG) technique is a challenging task due to interdependence of observables on multiple thermodynamic parameters. In CO 2 -N 2 mixtures, simultaneous determination of species concentration and gas temperature can be achieved by using an additional CO 2 concentration-dependent contribution to the LIG signal, which appears if 1064 nm pump pulses are employed. This contribution can be attributed to a direct, quasi-resonant two-color four-wave mixing (TCFWM) of the pump and probe radiations in CO 2 . A detailed study of the laser power and beam polarization, as well as mixture composition, pressure, and temperature dependencies of the TCFWM intensity relative to that of the LIG signal, allowed for the formulation of analytical relations enabling simultaneous mixture composition and temperature determination.Source Type:Article3
